A New Midrange Horn From A Mold I Made Years Ago

 About 45 years ago I decided to make a midrange horn similar to the Klipschorn midrange horn to go with my one-off Klipschorn that I made from 3/4" plywood.  I based the design not on actual plans but on photographs of the Klipshcorn I found in an audio magazine.

I no longer have the old home made "Klipschorn" but I do still have two midrange horns I made from 1/4" plywood.

The other thing I still have is the solid pine mold I used to form the midrange horns over.

Quite recently, I decided to make another midrange horn using this same mold.

In the photos you can see this "new" horn with a special stand to support it.  It is resting on a genuine Klipsch La Scala.  On the floor is the pine mold.
